about

Chris and I have known each other since the halcyon days of the AtmoWorks label, where I helped to release his debut album "Aralu" in 2008. 7 years and more than 10 solo and collaborative works later, Chris is a mainstay on the ambient music scene and a rising force in the industry.

On "Still", Chris has created some of the most sublime music of his career, a 63-minute slide into infinite quietude where the soul has time to wind down from the stresses of our "real world". Chris had this to say about the release.

"This music was recently created to help calm my mind and deal with stress. Re-learning how to relax and just be still has always been a challenge for me, so recording this album for eM has been a step in the right direction for a new and more balanced me. Music is medicine and can be therapeutic. My only hope is others will find peace and stillness within from the music on this album.

Keep still your mind.."

Chris Russell, January 2015

I'm thrilled to welcome Chris to the eM family - a natural offshoot of his rM history - and equally thrilled to ring in 2015 with this gorgeous release.

As always, all eM releases are free for download. If you choose to pay for the album, all proceeds from the sale will go directly to the artist.
